General Education

Option 1: Crafton Hills Local General Education Pattern

The general education requirements for option 1 are designed by Crafton Hills College to provide a fundamental learning foundation for all instructional programs offered by the college. These courses are designed to stimulate the student’s intellectual curiosity, to introduce the student to the major broad domains of higher education, and to develop the student’s awareness of societal concerns and the responsibilities of citizenship.

Option 2: California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC)

Completion of the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC) will permit a student to transfer to a California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campus or program generally without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower-division general education courses. The general education breadth requirements for option 2 follow the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC). Students completing the Cal-GETC pattern will satisfy Option 2 general education breadth requirements.
